Check Surgeon Qualifications
You should always check the qualifications of surgeons at prospective clinics. At the very least, they should be fully trained at a Thai medical school. International training is a bonus, and many Thai surgeons do spend time abroad for exactly that reason.

Ask About Surgeons’ Facelift Experience
Obviously, you want to visit a clinic with experienced surgeons. However, their expertise needs to be relevant to the procedure you are getting. Make sure they have carried out many facelift operations all with a high success rate. Some questions to ask are:

How many years have you been performing facelift procedures?
-
Approximately how many facelift procedures have you completed in total?
-
What is your success rate for facelift procedures?

Some surgeons offer free corrective surgery; just make sure you read the fine print before committing to anything.
